- hannibal has been cancelled after three seasons- from fuller: “NBC has allowed us to craft a television series that no other broadcast network would have dared, and kept us on the air for three seasons despite Cancellation Bear Chow ratings and images that would have shredded the eyeballs of lesser Standards & Practices enforcers," Fuller said in a statement. "Jen Salke and her team have been fantastic partners and creatively supportive beyond measure. HANNIBAL is finishing his last course at NBC’s table this summer, but a hungry cannibal can always dine again. And personally, I look forward to my next meal with NBC.”

It's had really, really terrible ratings from the start, but I think people assumed that if it hadn't been cancelled by now -- why bother? The production cost was very low and it had a loyal following.

yeah--i saw that and it gives me hope but it still makes me sad that really creative folks are hindered by the need to drive advertising when it is still unproven how effective tv advertising is on directly impacting revenue. also, the nielsen system is so stupid. I have never ever met anyone who was a "nielsen family."

This season has been HORRRRIBLE. Such pretentious fucking bullshit. Like they have totally eschewed any sort of plot development just so they can have their fancy schmancy extreme close-up slow-motion shots of fucking elk.

this bitch has 2 more shows coming out within the next year. she is FINE EDIT: not an attack, im upset too (not shocked tho). just referencing her. i recently fell in love with her after watching x files for the first time
